SSG

Organisation: 40x30 area with 4 mini goals spread 15yards apart. 4v4 with 2 floaters who play for the team in possession to create an overload (6v4)

How this game works is points are awarded for how many passes are completed before scoring a goal, ie 1 pass then a goal = 1 point, 5 successive passes then a goal = 5 points etc
